In the personal space training grounds in the virtual world.
Xu Jingming practiced his evolutionary method, spearmanship, and shield techniques to his heart’s content. Ever since he transformed into a cosmic lifeform, his body became even more amazing; he could be considered a humanoid nuclear bomb.
The spear he casually brandished weighed more than a thousand tonnes. Of course, Earth’s security system could easily kill even a Lv. 8 expert! Therefore, no matter how ambitious Earth’s evolvers were, they couldn’t stir up any waves.
Life evolution is indeed unbelievable. I’ve heard that a high-level cosmic lifeform can take a stroll on a white dwarf. A perfected Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform can even cultivate their body on a neutron star. Unfortunately, many cosmic civilizations have never produced a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform. Xu Jingming sighed with emotion.
Lv. 8 was too difficult.
Whoosh.
After finishing his training, Xu Jingming put away his weapon and sat on a granite rock. He opened his personal combat strength interface and checked the exact strength determined by the system.
Personal combat strength interface—
Genetic Evolutionary Method: Heavenly Python Evolution (62% Intermediate Cosmic Lifeform)
Physique: 1.8 million
/ please keep reading on MYB0XN0VEL(d0t)C0M.
Technique: Beam Transformation Spear Technique (Lv. 6 72%), Astral Spear (Lv. 6 62%), Footwork (Lv. 6 55%), Shield Technique (Lv. 6 60%)
Basic Combat Strength: 900 million
Energy: 180 million
Combat Bonus: 1530%
Combat Strength: 17.6 billion
In the virtual world, my evolutionary method has reached 62% of an intermediate cosmic lifeform, but I’m only 29% intermediate in reality. Xu Jingming frowned slightly. I’m clearly far behind in reality; my cultivation is slow.
Xu Jingming tapped open the detailed introduction of the evolutionary method.
For an intermediate cosmic lifeform, it’s best to have a gravity chamber and an artificial star to improve the body quickly. The gravity chamber can greatly increase the efficiency of the body’s evolutionary method, and an artificial star can replenish the body’s energy. Xu Jingming shook his head. But they have astronomical prices; I can’t afford them.
Even the most basic version of an artificial star required one billion cosmic dollars.
The gravity chamber allowed one to designate the strength of gravity! The higher the gravity limit, the more expensive it was!
Hence, many cosmic lifeforms would rather search for white dwarfs to cultivate after they became strong, even searching for neutron stars later on to save money.
My body will become stronger as I evolve, but the resources I need will also increase. Just light alone is far from enough. Xu Jingming temporarily suppressed his thoughts. After all, he hadn’t reached Lv. 7.
My spearmanship has improved, but I’m still some distance away from reaching Lv. 7. The actual combat bonus is 1530%. Xu Jingming nodded slightly. This number was within his expectations.
How embarrassing. My actual combat bonus is 15×, but I’m still at Lv. 6! It only proves that my mind is still very weak. Xu Jingming was cognizant of this.

The mind became more important toward the later stages of cultivation.
Lv. 6 cosmic lifeforms usually had a 5× actual combat bonus! Some had 10×, and some even had 20×.
Lv. 7 cosmic lifeforms started from a 10× actual combat bonus! Yes, some Lv. 7 cosmic lifeforms’ actual combat bonus wasn’t as good as Xu Jingming’s—they were only at 10×. But for them to reach Lv. 7, it was because… their minds far exceeded Xu Jingming’s.
The fact that I can’t break through despite having a high actual combat bonus means that my mind is weak. Xu Jingming understood this.
The weakness here was compared to Lv. 7 cosmic lifeforms!
There wasn’t a single Lv. 7 cosmic lifeform on Earth. Xu Jingming’s mind was definitely considered top-notch on Earth, but there was still a huge gap between him and the average Lv. 7 cosmic lifeform.
It’s very normal; I’m only 30 after all. Many Lv. 7 cosmic lifeforms have lived for hundreds or even more than a thousand years. They have had a long life and have experienced a lot, so it’s naturally not easy for me to catch up to them psychologically. Xu Jingming also understood the gap.
He was far away from the average mental standards of a Lv. 7. Then, how far was he from Lv. 8? What about Lv. 9?
I have to be down-to-earth and take it one step at a time. Xu Jingming felt that there was still a long way to go on the path of evolution after gaining insights into Spark and improving his strength.
Xu Jingming tapped gently, and his consciousness entered Blood Rain World.
******
Life in Blood Rain World was uneventful. Xu Jingming continued living a leisurely life as a Blood Rain Guard captain.
In fact, having a calm and uneventful life was most common. It was rare to see tumultuous waves.
Many people just lived their lives peacefully. Some people found such lives boring and dull, some found it boring and depressing, and some were willing to endure hardship… Everything depended on one’s mind! One’s life depended on one’s state of mind.
People from all walks of life in Blood Rain World have their own lives. Xu Jingming walked the streets and observed the countless people around him.
After observing all walks of life, he naturally had a better understanding of life. This was also a form of mental tempering.
“Brother Jingming.” An enthusiastic shout sounded from the side.
Xu Jingming turned his head and saw Luo Baichuan.
“Brother Luo, have you taken office?” Xu Jingming asked.
“Since my body has more or less recovered, I immediately took up my post. I just took up my post yesterday, and I’m a Blood Rain Guard deputy captain at the B South Wing’s Principales.” Luo Baichuan smiled. “Oh right, let’s hurry over. This is the first time Miss Fei is hosting a banquet for us since we arrived in the capital.”
Xu Jingming nodded.
They naturally had to accept Fei Xinlan’s invitation.
…
In a quiet private residence, there were only four people—Fei Xinlan, Xu Jingming, Luo Baichuan, and Qiu Tong.
